The 2018 award season is in full swing and so far, we've seen some seriously stunning bling on our favorite stars as they've walked the red carpet. Join Wonderwall.com as we celebrate all that's glittery and gold… starting with the dazzling 18-karat white gold Lorraine Schwartz earrings Chrissy Teigen wore to the Grammys that featured contrasting black-and-white diamonds. Playing off the sparkle of her silver sequined Yanina Couture gown, Chrissy was a shimmering vision of loveliness. Keep reading to see more of the best bling from award season…

Doesn't Zoe Kravitz just ooze coolness? On the Golden Globes red carpet, Zoe rocked a strapless tailored black Saint Laurent gown, but it was her chunky Lorraine Schwartz emerald earrings that stole the show. The step-cut emeralds gave Zoe a playful pop of green amidst a sea of black gowns, setting her and her gorgeous pixie cut apart from the crowd.

Though she stuck to the all-black Time's Up movement-inspired dress code at the Golden Globes, Dakota Johnson opted to have a little fun with her jewelry. The actress selected Nirav Modi Luminance collection cascade diamond earrings featuring stones in various sizes set in a unique design to catch the light and create playful colors. Not pictured are the Nirav Modi white gold bangles she also rocked on her right wrist.

Even Beyonce's earlobes are magical. At the Grammys, Bey went big with Lorraine Schwartz's 70-carat diamond and titanium earrings in a striking geometric shape with a 35-carat diamond center. On her fingers are three equally huge diamond rings set in platinum. Even Blue Ivy is in on the bling with a sparkling diamond barrette in her hair.

Lady Gaga might be hiding her gorgeous face in this pic, but thankfully, she's putting her massive diamond rings on display. On her right hand, we have a black diamond bypass ring on her index finger and a black diamond serpent ring on her ring finger. And on her left hand, there's a gigantic pink-and-white diamond sparkler (perhaps an engagement ring from her beau, agent Christian Carino?). Gaga reportedly wore 200 carats of black diamonds to the Grammys. Not seen are her 18-carat black diamond Lorraine Schwartz chandelier earrings, which look like dangling skeletons.

Jessica Biel was so blingy at the Golden Globes, she almost blinded us with her Instagram selfie. The actress and husband Justin Timberlake arrived on the red carpet both wearing black Dior, but Jessica added pizzazz to her princess-style gown with dangling Bulgari diamond earrings and some seriously chunky Bulgari diamond bracelets.

It's no surprise that the lovely Jessica Chastain wore Piaget to the Golden Globes, considering she's their brand ambassador. If her Piaget Rose Limelight Passion earrings look heavy, that's because they're encrusted with over 288 diamonds in a white gold setting. She's also wearing a Limelight Gala diamond and white gold watch.

"Black-ish" star Tracee Ellis Ross worked the SAG Awards red carpet in a stunning white Ralph Lauren Grecian-style gown accentuated with dangling ruby Lorraine Schwartz earrings. The earrings perfectly matched her beautiful crimson lips and made her stand out amidst a sea of diamonds.

Kate Hudson might sell leggings and athleisure wear but girlfriend knows how to turn it up on the red carpet. At the Golden Globes, Kate opted for a black Valentino haute couture gown with Harry Winston diamond earrings and a necklace from the brand's Secret Wonder collection. The long 30-carat diamond-and-platinum necklace featured a stunning sapphire and aquamarine pendant.

Necklaces were big on the Golden Globes red carpet but no celebrity could match Viola Davis' incredible Harry Winston necklace(s) which were a combination of seven strands featuring 111 carats of flawless white diamonds from the brand's Secret Combination collection. Of course she also had hefty diamond earrings that added an extra touch of glitz and glamour.

"Game of Thrones" star Emilia Clarke kept her jewelry stunningly sleek at the Golden Globes. Her V-shaped Harry Winston necklace featuring 18 carats of diamonds and low-key 6-carat emerald-cut diamond solitaire earrings made her look like royalty. Not pictured: Emilia's three different diamond rings ranging from 2 to .73 carats, which added a subtle shimmer to her fingers.

If one woman stood out on the Grammys red carpet, it was no doubt hip-hop artist Cardi B in her structured (and fluffy) white Ashi Studio gown paired with some of the blingiest bling of the night. On her ears, Cardi flaunted sparkling diamond vines and a diamond cuff both from Messika Paris. Not seen: Cardi's giant diamond engagement ring from fiance Offset, which is reportedly worth $500,000.

Allison Williams might have gone against the grain with her black-and-orange beaded Armani Privé gown at the Golden Globes (giving her a surprisingly sunshine-y pop of color on the red carpet), but when it came to her jewels, she went surprisingly traditional. She wore a four-strand choker crafted from 43 carats of white diamonds and 18-karat white gold, a statement piece selected by her stylist, Cristina Ehrlich, who wanted jewelry that didn't "take over the look."

We've already gushed about Katherine Langford's amazing Golden Globes hair and makeup, but we could spend a lifetime drooling over her amazing jewelry. Katherine's side-swept hair was held in place by a trail of sparkling Jennifer Behr Venus bobby pins. To accentuate the celestial look, Katherine wore 18-karat white gold and diamond teardrop earrings by Chopard and several Chopard diamond rings (not pictured). Could she have looked any more perfect?

Peeking out from under Kesha's long blonde hair at the Grammys were a pair of stunning ruby and pearl earrings that were surprisingly vintage compared to her navy blue embroidered suit. On her fingers, Kesha kept it blingy with a gigantic 50-carat Narcisa Pheres emerald ring and equally sparkly (though less intimidating) diamond rings from Roberto Bravo and L'Dezen by Payal Shah.

Kerry Washington looked ravishing on the Golden Globes red carpet and kept it decidedly simple with her accessories. Pairing her strapless black Prabal Gurung gown with jet black nails and Lorraine Schwartz black diamond earrings in a white gold setting, Kerry followed Coco Chanel's rule of not overdoing it when it comes to jewelry.

Saoirse Ronan might have donned an all-black gown (with a single silver shoulder) at the Golden Globes but she was swimming in a sea of blue with her gorgeous sapphire-and-diamond Cartier drop earrings. The earrings played up her impossibly blue eyes (don't they also look like gems?), which made her all-around look more sophisticated and alluring.

Greta Gerwig's choice to go vintage at the Golden Globes paid off big-time. The "Lady Bird" director complemented her one-shoulder black velvet Oscar de la Renta gown with a 1980s Tiffany & Co. 18-karat gold and diamond feathered collar necklace that shined like rays of light. Critics took note, calling her jewelry choice one of the most unusual and beautiful of the night.

It's been a big year for R&B singer-actress Mary J. Blige, who's received numerous nominations for her supporting role in the drama "Mudbound." At the SAG Awards, where Mary received two nods, she arrived dressed to slay. Complementing her feathered black-and-white Jean-Louis Sabaji gown were chunky black onyx-and-diamond earrings from David Webb. They added the right touch of drama to Mary's overall look, which was surprisingly sophisticated in comparison to some of her previous red carpet ensembles.

We can't decide if we're more jealous of Alison Brie's incredible SAG Awards look or the fact that she's married to Dave Franco (it's a tie). Proving she's not just a "Gorgeous Lady of Wrestling," Alison made our jaws drop in a one-shoulder red Dundas gown and seriously hot 18-karat gold Irene Neuwirth drop earrings with sapphire and lapis lazuli.

With a smile like that, Issa Rae doesn't even need jewelry, but a few diamonds and emeralds sure don't hurt. Issa gleamed on the Golden Globes red carpet in a black Prabal Gurung gown with a plunging diamond necklace from Lorraine Schwartz featuring an emerald pendant (and more dangling diamonds), which was matched with delicate pear-shaped diamond earrings.

It turns out Beyonce wasn't the only diva at the Grammys with Herculean earlobes. Heidi Klum's ears did some heavy lifting thanks to these shoulder-skimming black jade Lorraine Schwartz chandelier earrings. Not pictured: the coordinating 40-carat black diamond ring flashing on her finger.

Molly Sims went for whimsical at the SAG Awards where she paired her turquoise high-collared Greta Constantine gown with multi-color diamond and gemstone chandelier earrings from Leticia Linton. Finishing the look with a messy top bun, Molly looked playful and put together all at once.

Rita Ora kept her decollete bare at the Grammys but didn't hold back the bling from the rest of her body. Those are 30-carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond stud earrings! Not pictured are the three diamond rings Rita also rocked, bringing her grand total to more than $3 million in diamonds alone.

Yvonne Strahovski might play one of our least favorite characters on "The Handmaid's Tale," but she wore one of our favorite necklaces to the Golden Globes. Her Bulgari bib necklace featured emeralds and sapphires, adding a subtle play of color to her neckline. She finished the look with simple, elegant diamond studs.
